Becoming a City of Richmond Master Gardener

    Date Posted: Tue, Jun 03 - 11:20 am

    Question

  • I'm interested in becoming a master gardener in Richmond, but haven't had much luck finding the resources to become one within city limits. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
  • Answer

  • Hi Amber! We're excited to hear about your interest in becoming a Master Gardener in the City of Richmond. The city has been without an extension agent since 2021. Our group of Master Gardeners has been continuing on without that leadership, but has been unable to host classes for new master gardeners. Recently, we have gotten connected with Chesterfield and Henrico and now have opportunities to have new members go through their classes and still join the City of Richmond!! This has been a very excited opportunity for us. We will be opening applications for the program in September. I will send you an email, please e-mail me back to get on the wait list for more information as soon as it is available.
